Do you need WiFi for Animal Crossing New Horizons?
Nope, you don't absolutely need WiFi to enjoy Animal Crossing: New Horizons on your Nintendo Switch. Most of the game, like decorating your island, catching bugs and fish, and talking to your animal neighbors, can be played offline. However, visiting other players' islands, downloading the latest updates, and participating in seasonal events does require an internet connection.

Sure, you can totally play ACNH without WiFi but you'll miss out on a lot. You won't get updates, can't visit friends' islands or share your cool island designs. Kinda like living on a deserted island for real, but with cuter animals.
WiFi? For solo play, nah, you're all good. For the full experience? Absolutely.
Honestly, ACNH without WiFi is missing half the fun. Imagine no visiting friends or no new updates. It's playable but definitely not the same.
